Uses the same brakes as 1200 sedan/coupe
The ones from the 1980s use the same brakes as B11.

Thanks D, I might just bolt up the standard setup until I swap for discs.

rear disks are overrated, I find drums better for streeter and track well Z rear drums in alloy and finned are legendary with great hand-brake turns for rallye & possibly drift as well

Looks like the newer style brakes:
New 1200 ![]() Original 1200 ![]() New type has auto-adjusting mechanism ![]() See Rear Brakes for a list of parts. B310 has the auto-adjusters.

Ok, so I always disc rear end but drums are sounding pretty good now too.
About the 260z finned drums are they easy to get and any mods required D? Here is what I have:

If you use the Bluebird drums from a H190 S3 then all you do is fit the alloy drums from the 240 or 260z as they use the same parts as the bluey.
This is what Steve Newing did for the H165 rear end on the 1000 coupe that he used to campaign and from what I heard its virtually a bolt on setup. The alloy drums are available from Z wreckers and gumtree. Last time got quoted 30 a pair from Zworks in Brighton Melbourne but not hard to find. Drums only provide a small % of overall breaking but when setup properly are awesome for hand brake turns or corrections for cornering, understeer and forced oversteer when power is not always there :) You can view topic.
